WP YouTube 2

2008-01-13 @ 17:21

WP YouTube is a free WordPress plugin that makes your YouTube videos easier to publish. You don’t need to make the effort to paste the whole embed-code. All you need the video ID, the rest is handled by WP YouTube.

WP YouTube now supports a profile editor, where you can set up different settings, but only one profile is needed for all your YouTube videos. Then it automatically set the colors, borders, width, height and more. Easy to use!

Updates 2.0

Totally rewritten from the scratch to make way for a new profile editor

Profile editor created. You can use different profiles in your posts or pages, for example if you have the need to use different colors.

Because of the profile editor, each profile is more compact to take a little less space on the screen

Javascript is now required to use WP YouTube admin. Because of the Javascript the plugin is very fast to use.

Preview of your YouTube player, shows colors and border settings

You can paste a function code in your theme and that way use settings from a profile. If you are into theme creation this might be a good thing.

The menu is moved to ‘Manage / YouTube Profiles’ simply because you manage YouTube profiles.

I’m having problems getting some YouTube videos to appear. All has been fine for some time and I’ve had no issues with the plugin. However, I’m now finding that there are some new formats of YouTube ID that include characters such as dashes – these are being encoded in the URL and then not displaying.

I am running WP v2.9.1 and WP YouTube v2.0. I was also using the plug-in WEBO Site SpeedUp. My site and the wp-admin of WEBO slowed WAAAY down after installing WP YouTube. Also, Google Chrome started complaining about a mismatched tag. Sometimes, you used , other times you used . I converted all the usage to and my performance came back and Google Chrome stopped complaining.
